چکیده
We present zELDA(redshift Estimator for Line profiles of Distant Lyman-Alpha emitters), an open source code to fit (Lya) line profiles. The main motivation is provide the community with easy use and fast tool analyze Lya uniformly improve understating emitting galaxies. zELDA based on commonly used 'shell-model' pre-computed full Monte Carlo radiative transfer LyaRT. Via interpolation between these spectra addition noise, we assemble a suite realistic which train deep neural network. show that network can predict model parameters high accuracy (e.g.,.0.34 dex HI column density R=12000) thus allows significant speedup over existing fitting methods. As proof concept, demonstrate potential by 97 observed from LASD data base. Comparing fitted value measured systemic redshift sources, find determines their rest frame wavelength remarkable good 0.3A (75 km/s). predicted outflow properties luminosity equivalent width, several possible trends. For example, anticorrelation neutral hydrogen density, might be explained process within galaxies

Interplanetary Lyman α line profiles : variations with solar activity cycle
Aims. Interplanetary Lyman α line profiles are derived from the SWAN H cell data measurements. The measurements cover a 6-year period from solar minimum (1996) to after the solar maximum of 2001. This allows us to study the variations of the line profiles with solar activity. Methods. These line profiles were used to derive line shifts and line widths in the interplanetary medium for various an...
متن کاملDamped Lyman - Alpha Galaxies
Some results from an imaging program to identify low-redshift (0.09 < z < 1.63) damped Lyα (DLA) galaxies are presented. The standard paradigm that was widely accepted a decade ago, that DLA galaxies are the progenitors of luminous disk galaxies, is now being seriously challenged. The indisputable conclusion from imaging studies at low redshift is that the morphological types of DLA galaxies ar...
متن کاملExplaining the Lyman-alpha forest
It is shown that many properties of Lyα forest absorbers can be derived using simple physical arguments. Analytical expressions are derived for the density and the size of an absorber as a function of its neutral hydrogen column density, which agree well with both observations and hydrodynamical simulations. An expression is presented to compute ΩIGM from the observed column density distributio...
متن کاملOn-line Building Energy Optimization using Deep Reinforcement Learning
Unprecedented high volumes of data are becoming available with the growth of the advanced metering infrastructure. These are expected to benefit planning and operation of the future power system, and to help the customers transition from a passive to an active role. In this paper, we explore for the first time in the smart grid context the benefits of using Deep Reinforcement Learning, a hybrid...
متن کاملImaging the Lyman-alpha Forest
We show that it is now possible to image optically thick Ly clouds in uores-cent Ly emission with a relatively long (20 hr) integration on a large (10 m) telescope. For a broad range of column densities (N > 10 18:5 cm 2), the ux of Ly photons from recombination cascades is equal to 0:6 times the ux of ionizing photons, independent of the geometry of the cloud. Additional Ly photons are produce...
